Note to 51

Much of this is drawn from controversial Episcopal priest Matthew Fox’s thinking. I don’t subscribe to all of Fox’s ideas, but I agree with his basic orientation. Fox’s best-known books are Original Blessing (Tarcher, 2000), and The Coming of the Cosmic Christ (HarperOne,1988). Famously long-winded, but intriguing, the best distillation of his basic orientation is found in the interview with Fox in The Future of God by Samantha Trenoweth (Morehouse Group, 1995, p. 237-260). Fox uses the Meister Eckhart quote here as well.
